I said "Live Long and Prosper" at my highschool graduation while doing the vulcan hand gesture for it. That was 3 weeks ago tomorrow, so im sure i still have geekier things yet to do.

Haha I did that that other day - "yeah I'll shoot you a PM". I also have somehow gotten in the habit of saying acryonms - "talk to you later", "be right back", "be back in a bit", etc. Curse IRC & AIM, lol.

My co-workers were talking about how big a geek you would need to be to know the ascii code for upside down question mark... to which I immediately responded, "What, ALT-168?" ¿

I've done that with my gamer friends, but obviously in a joking manner.

edit: When you change "not seriously" to "in a joking manner", remember to erase the "not".

My wife said that was really nerdy and to leave the stuff home.

I read this to my wife and she said she'd let me

Oh, I haven't done this, but how many of you say LOL instead of laugh (or say LOL and laugh at the same time) when something funny happens?

I had bought a Rubik's Cube keychain and was playing with it as I walked from the store to the bus stop. I walked straight into a fire hydrant.

I also maintain a spreadsheet with every song in my music collection.

I've been following this girl around for a while now. I keep track of every place this girl goes, and put it on a spreadsheet. I met her in high school. I also keep track of the days she wears lipstick. I've been doing it for 5 years now. I made a sim city town with a replica of her town, and replicated the places she goes in sim city.

I think you have the wrong thread. This goes in the "Share your creepiest hobbies" thread.

I was so happy when I got my first computer as a kid. 750Mhz PIII, 128MB SDRAM, Voodoo 2000... and two days later the damn KME power supply destroyed the whole thing. I got down on my knees and begged that the computer would turn back to life. When it didn't for that I pet the top of the case and told it how much I loved it for hours and even still it never came back.
